Why is a manager worth their incomes?

I recently posed that question to a bunch of practice managers on a listserve and got some great feedback. A good practice manager is worth their weight in gold, as long as they exhibit excellence in the followings areas:

• Human resource management
• Billing and coding
• Payroll
• Business development and strategy
• Information technology management
• Risk management
• Financial management
• Contract negotiation and insurance company management

I could not agree more. A good practice manager is truly worth their weight in gold and can help you generate income, run a business, and be a doctor.

Thanks.
